Seems nothing is off limits for the woke groomers these days, not even crayons. Remember those 64 color crayons you got as a kid? Now, Crayola, the crayon maker is marketing their products, using a transgender man named Julian Gavino to market to 2-10 year olds.
Crayola posted this to Facebook yesterday:
Julian Gavino, (he/him) is a fashion model, writer, and activist who identifies as a transgender man. He was born with a progressive neurological condition. Julian is passionate about advocating for his respective communities. As someone who grew up not seeing anyone who looked like him in the media, Julian is determined to normalize disabled and trans bodies in the fashion world. He works with designers and brands on creating adaptive clothing and stresses the importance of universal design– clothing everyone can wear. He has worked with brands such as Tommy Hilfiger, Mac Cosmetics, and was Abercrombie’s first disabled/transgender model. Julian says he truly believes you can connect to your soul and others through creativity. He says, “You can do it through fashion, art, you can do it through color. Being a creator has allowed me to expand in ways I didn’t think I could. I think my disability kind of forced me into a spot where I had to look at things from a different perspective. When I felt frustrated, I would turn to art. It’s important to have outlets like that. I used to feel embarrassed about using mobility devices. This got me more interested in fashion. I felt out of control with what was happening to my body. So, when I started pushing the boundaries on what I would usually wear. It helped me cope. Now there’s probably nothing I wouldn’t try to wear or have fun with.” This #DisabilityPrideMonth Crayola celebrates Julian and everyone like him for their passion and creativity.
Somehow, I don’t think 2-10 year olds are into, or should be exposed to pronouns and gender fluidity.
